Chapter 3 He's Lying
- In the original story, after losing her own baby, Zhang Ling fell into despair. Yang Mingrui then took the female lead home and let his wife raise her as her own daughter.
- The evidence of treason was also framed by the female lead.
- It was a devastating blow to Zhang Ling.
- Zhang Ling only faintly heard about the "enemy's daughter" and "kill", which almost made her drop the baby in shock.
- She tried to listen again but couldn't make out anything further.
- Zhang Ling looked up and asked, "Why hasn't Lord Yang come back yet?"
- Several maids brought in herbal soup one after another, and some helped bathe Yang Yuting. But Zhang Ling was worried and didn't allow the child to be taken away from her sight. She only bathed the child in the small tub in the room.
- Hu Yue smiled and said, "We sent someone to inform Lord Yang as soon as you were going to labor. The master loves you the most. Maybe he's been delayed by official matters."
- In this city, who wouldn't envy the house of Marquess Yang?
- The old Marquess died in battle early on, leaving the Old Madam Yang to raise several children on her own. The once grand house of Marquess Yang became an empty shell, but luckily, Yang Mingrui was promising. He achieved great things and inherited his father's title.
- The only surprising thing was when a distant cousin from the Yang family showed up.
- Rumour has it that she had been fond of Yang Mingrui for a long time and insisted on marrying him, even running into a pole to prove her determination.
- At the time, Yang Mingrui was already engaged to Zhang Ling from the Zhang family, so he sent that cousin off to marry someone far away.
- This became a topic of conversation over meals.
- Zhang Ling came from a prestigious family. After marrying into the house of Marquess Yang, with support from her relatives, their household quickly rose to prominence.
- Yang Mingrui and Zhang Ling were known as a loving couple in the capital, and they had a strong bond.
- However, Zhang Ling had been drifting apart from her kin due to Yang Mingrui's disapproval.
- Zhang Ling smiled and nodded. "You're probably right. He might be held up by important matters." She didn't doubt it for a moment.
- "Miss Yang is living the good life here in the house of Marquess Yang. Lord Yang and Madam are deeply in love, and even Lord Yang's mother, who's usually so proud, treats the Madam sincerely." Hu Yue thought that Madam was probably the most enviable woman in the capital.
- After Yang Yuting finished her bath, she waved her little hands around.
- Babbling angrily.
- 'Liar! Father is a liar!'
- He's been lying to Mother all along.
- Mother is so pitiful ...
- 'Father is a bad guy! He's in the far corner of Cran Alley, waiting for his mistress to give birth.' The little voice was filled with a sad tone.
- Zhang Ling was stunned.
- Cran Alley?
- Waiting for his mistress to give birth?!
- I risked my life in the mansion, and he's waiting for his mistress to give birth.
- Her years of love were shattered!
- 'His true love is giving birth to his baby right now … '
- Zhang Ling's mind was in turmoil, and she was even feeling a bit lost.
- She wanted to listen closely to what was happening with the mistress, but her daughter was young, and her thoughts were unclear. Moreover, her thoughts were wandering, so she could only try to pick out useful information.
- That day almost overturned all her beliefs.
- Her daughter was strangled after she gave birth, and she could hear her daughter's thoughts.
- And …
- Her husband was waiting for his mistress to give birth!
- Zhang Ling's heart raced. In the more than ten years since she married into the Yang family, she had never had a disagreement or a conflict with them.
- She thought she had married the best man in the world.
- But now, finding out about his mistress, her first instinct was to resist.
- Is my husband, who I have cherished, actually lying to me?
